In the land of the free, more people are behind bars than in any other wealthy country worldwide. “What do we have to show for it? We don’t have safer communities; our violent crime rate is higher than most wealthy nations. It’s alarming, and it has to change.”-@BradleyRHaywood

Hopefully the age for juvenile will extend to 25 years old, that's when the brain develops fully correct?

SB 79 is a mandatory Civil Death penalty- say NO!

SB 123 must be amended to require the jury to adhere to sentencing guidelines, if not amended then say NO!

Here it is, the important #SecondLook legislation patroned by @CarrieCoyner, to establish a petition process for people serving excessively long sentences and demonstrating good conduct to have their sentences re-considered by the court that gave the original sentence.

[Justice Forward VA @JusticeFwdVa]

VA abolished parole in 1995 and offers almost no mechanisms to review sentences or provide second chances to incarcerated Virginians who have worked diligently to grow, change, and repay their debt to society.

A THREAD for those who want to to join efforts to change that: 1/

NEW REPORT on recidivism shows that people convicted of homicide are extremely unlikely to commit another violent crime after release from prison. It’s time to end the false narrative that people convicted of violent crimes are too dangerous to release! https://t.co/fabcc84gyi
